Occupy Benghazi...

Whodathunkit?

It doesn't quite have the same "ring" to it though.

The Guardian reports...

"Anti-government activists have set up a tent city in the eastern city of Benghazi in a second day of demonstrations against Libya's ruling National Transitional Council."

"Formed in March, the NTC last month appointed a cabinet, but it has yet to release the names of its members – or even confirm how many there are. Meetings are held in secret and voting records are not released."

"This lack of transparency is also handicapping Libya financially as it tries to persuade the outside world to hand back an estimated £100bn in frozen assets.Last week, Britain's minister for north African and Middle Eastern affairs, Alistair Burt, became the first senior western official to raise doubts about the ability of the NTC to process this cash. "We have to be absolutely certain that it [Libya's government] can handle the assets and that the banks can use it effectively," he said."

Ooops! indeed.

From here.
